Abstract

Evolutionary and meta-heuristic algorithms are widely used to solve water resources optimization problems. In this context, the honey bee mating optimization (HBMO) algorithm, inspired by the mating ritual of honey bees, is a reliable and efficient algorithm. The HBMO algorithm is modified in this work leading to the Enhanced HBMO (EHBMO) algorithm. The EHBMO is then applied to solve several unconstrained/constrained mathematical benchmark functions and a multi-reservoir problem. The performance of the EHBMO is compared with those of the elitist genetic algorithm (EGA) and the HBMO algorithm. The results show that the EHBMO achieves a better solution in a smaller number of functional evaluations and with less variance of results about global optima in comparison with the EGA and the HBMO algorithm.
